Takeda Oncology will present data in multiple myeloma, lymphoma and leukemia from the company’s marketed products as well as provide early insights into the potential of therapies leveraging the innate immune system.

"At Takeda Oncology, improving patient care is the foundation for all we do," said Christopher Arendt, Ph.D., Head of Oncology Cell Therapy and Therapeutic Area Unit of Takeda. "At this year’s ASH (Free ASH Whitepaper), we look forward to showcasing our deep legacy and leadership in the treatment of hematologic cancers by sharing data that will help to inform the optimal use of our established medicines and presenting research from two pipeline programs designed with the potential to drive potent and effective immune attacks against cancer. While early-stage, we continue to explore these new treatment pathways as we seek to outsmart cancer."
"The hematological data we are highlighting at ASH (Free ASH Whitepaper) this year demonstrates our commitment to furthering personalized care strategies, and leading scientific innovation to address unmet needs within the global bleeding disorders community," added Neil Inhaber, Head of Global Medical Affairs, Rare Genetics and Hematology. "In addition to developing our promising pipeline of investigative molecules, which may have transformative potential for multiple rare and life-threatening hematological conditions, we remain focused on expanding the use of our current portfolio to benefit more people living with rare bleeding disorders."
